Interviews with some of the biggest names in TV.
There’s nothing harder on “Survivor” than making it to the very end and coming up short of the grand prize, but when it comes to Michael Skupin from this season in the Philippines, the man seems to be taking it all in stride rather well. After all, this is a man who waited a whole […]
Denise Stapley was declared the winner of “Survivor: Philippines” on Sunday night, and she did so using a strategy that was in many ways rather complicated. She had a great strategy that she utilized in keeping strong alliances and never making herself the #1 target, and she also is the only person ever to literally […]
During the first few weeks of “Survivor: Philippines,” it did not really look as though Lisa Whelchel was someone who was destined to be a part of the show for very long. She struggled at first to fit in, and find her way in a place where she was trying to find herself. However, that […]
There’s no question that Abi-Maria was a character that most people either loved to hate or just hated on “Survivor: Philippines,” but it is impossible to deny that she was a huge reason why this season was so entertaining. Her fights with some of the other castaways brought out some great moments, and her honesty […]
In late November, we published an exclusive look at The Chronicles of Downton Abbey: A New Era, the latest companion book to “Downton Abbey” that was recently released in America just in time for the holiday season.

At this moment, there is no question that Jonathan Penner has to be one of the most engaging characters to ever play the game on “Survivor.” He is incredibly intelligent, a true fan of the game, and he also know how to adequately tell a story to viewers at home. Place this in contrast with […]
Pete Yurkowski did a lot of things right on “Survivor: Philippines,” whether it be his passion for strategy, trying to forge bonds with other people, and even some of his performances in challenges. Unfortunately for him, what really seemed to hurt him in this game is that he couldn’t see the forest (or in this […]
Considering that we picked Artis Silvester to win “Survivor: Philippines” before the start of the season, it’s pretty fair to say that we were rather sad to see the guy go on Wednesday night. After all, the guy had a tough time out there: despite coming across as very likable in the pre-show interviews, he […]
Usually when you have a celebrity appear on “Survivor,” the general tendency is for them to be either stunt casting or an early boot. Just look at Jimmy Johnson, who really didn’t do much of anything en route to be the third person kicked off his season. However, Jeff Kent really did something different: while […]
